How is your day Today? Chat about your plans and achievements 2025....

Had a great day with Toddler GS yesterday. He's my good-tempered sweetie. 💙💜💙

Definitely (maybe) getting to Christmas decorations today.

I just watched MLK's "I've Got a Dream" speech and wept toward the end. I celebrate how far many of us have come in 62 years, and despair at how little progress others have made - some quite publicly relishing any opportunity to go backwards. 😥

We got about 2 inches of snow here, give or take a half.....after all the hype. . It was 5F when I got up, but up to 20 now!

Staying in for sure. Inauguration guests arriving. Melania is dressed as a 1900's school marm. Flawless, tho'. Some guy is singing now; Christopher Dean Macchio. Good tenor.

Laundry is calling.

She does look beautiful, but I liked her outfit from last time better.

Top right: my pups are guarding me by watching in all directions for possible coyotes and mountain lions (I also carry Gel Pepper Spray.)
My big guy tries to kill everyone who gives me a dirty look. OK, he got me repeatedly in trouble because he is way too protective of me.

So, why I am still able at 89 to work in the garden, change the oil on our cars, and go hiking with my Boxer pups 65, 85, and 95 pounds heavy?
They are stronger than I am. I wouldn't be able to handle them if they weren't 100% loyal and blindly obedient. They are my 24/7 companions.
My much younger wife promised to retire from work last year, then this May, and now she wants to drag it out till October. I believe when I see it.

I think my health is due to exercise, super healthy food, a loving family, good sleep, and steering free of junk food and other modern evils.
Below: I love probiotics like fiber, Kimchi, Kefir, and Sauerkraut; plenty of vegetables and fruits, and usually fish rather than red meat.

Well it's now racing towards 9pm, and I've finally finished with the shopping. I've portioned up 2 dozen dinner rolls, ...2 and a half dozen chicken drumsticks... and a dozen cheese scones... and got them into the freezers.. just enough space.. just ...that's after I'd already put in a box of Prawn Wonton soup, a big bag of pork sausages, and some sliced bread....into freezers which were already 3/4's full

I had Spaghetti carbonara for dinner.. in-between doing all that.., and washed and dried all the new cutlery I bought today.


My back is absolutely killing me...

Yesterday we got all the furniture back in DH’s bedroom. We had hard flooring installed a few days ago. It was a real chore moving heavy wood furniture. They sure built solid things back then. I don’t like it and tried to suggest we get rid of one dresser.

He did agree he didn’t need the huge mirror, so now I’m trying to decide which art to put in its place. I’m a real fusspot about these things.
 
Its been a sunny but very cold day here in Buffalo
When I woke up at 6:30am temp was 12 ,windchill was -6 did not go out today
Instead to get some exercise, walked our long hallway twice this morning,ditto for this afternoon
This evening I'll be watching Ohio St vs Notre Dame for college football championship starts at 7:30,hopefully it won;t be boring like the other playoff games have been. If it is, I'll switch over to Food Network to watch Kids Baking Championship

I'm back and forth on Melania's suit. My first thought was Spy vs Spy. But I think she pulled it off.
